Arosa

The Best Western Plus Arosa Hotel sits in Paderborn, a cathedral city in eastern Westphalia known for the Paderquellen — the springs that surface in the centre and give the city its name. The hotel opened in 1973 and has been kept up as a full-service business and city hotel, with a restaurant, a bar/lounge and seven meeting rooms. The wellness floor is the reason it belongs on a sauna-led directory: an indoor pool, a sauna and a steam room, open to hotel guests and a calm way to close a day of meetings or sightseeing. A 24-hour business centre, concierge and multilingual front desk round out the service side, and the hotel runs a strong line of sustainability measures — LED lighting, a food-waste policy and a no-single-use-plastic rule. Paderborn is a practical base: the cathedral and the Heinz Nixdorf computer museum are close, the Old Town is walkable, and the hotel links straight into the city's shopping. It suits business travellers, conference guests and weekend visitors equally.
